The Sinovac-CoronaVac product is an inactivated vaccine. Its easy storage requirements make it very manageable and particularly suitable for low-resource settings,\u201d the statement from WHO reads.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWHO\u2019s Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunisation (SAGE) has also completed its review of the vaccine. On the basis of available evidence, WHO recommends the vaccine for use in adults 18 years and older, in a two-dose schedule with a spacing of two to four weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVaccine efficacy results showed that the vaccine prevented symptomatic disease in 51% of those vaccinated and prevented severe COVID-19 and hospitalisation in 100% of the studied population.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFew older adults (over 60 years) were enrolled in clinical trials, so efficacy could not be estimated in this age group. Nevertheless, WHO is not recommending an upper age limit for the vaccine because data collected during subsequent use in multiple countries and supportive immunogenicity data suggest the vaccine is likely to have a protective effect in older persons.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no reason to believe that the vaccine has a different safety profile in older and younger populations. WHO recommends that countries using the vaccine in older age groups conduct safety and effectiveness monitoring to verify the expected impact and contribute to making the recommendation more robust for all countries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Nigeria may benefit from the recent approval of Sinovac-CoronaVac by the WHO, considering that the federal government had said it was in talks with China on procurement of more vaccine doses.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sinovac-CoronaVac, a brand of COVID-19 vaccine from China has been approved by the World Health Organisation for emergency use.
